Welcome to our Connecticut country home, where we hope you will have a quiet, calm and entirely satisfying experience. We are influenced by yoga and meditation – Barbara teaches both – and live in an uncluttered, peaceful environment where we hope you will feel entirely at home.

Nestled in the woods just 90 minutes from NYC by train. Our home is surrounded by 80 acres of watershed preserve, yet is located on a state road making it easy to find and reliably accessible when winter comes.

Redding is a small, quiet community with no real business district. There are a number of hiking trails, small farms and unique experiences;
– New Pond Farm Education Center
– Wier Farm Art Center
– DNKL, Tibetan Buddhist Center for Universal Peace
– Redding Center for Mindfullness, Insight Meditation
Keep your eyes open for some of our shyer friends in the woods. If you are lucky, you may see one or more; deer, pileated woodpecker (those are the big ones), fox, geese, ducks and maybe a turkey or two.

The home is a short distance to RT 7, RT 6, I84 and Danbury Municipal Air Port and the New York State boarder. We are within an hour of NY City.

(Security deposit is not charged, only in place if damages occurs)
• Within ONE MILE you will find the West Redding Metro-North Railroad ; trains to and from Grand Central Station NY (direct service 5 times a day, and connecting service throughout day) and travel points along the coast of CT. A pizza, and deli, and post office.
• Within TWO to FOUR miles you will find an outstanding farmers market and bakery. The Danbury Fair Mall, Whole Foods, shopping centers, Tarrywile Park for hiking or strolling along your choice of trails. Topstone Park and miles of country beauty.

A refreshing time for couples, business traveler or someone on their own journey. We have an excellent reading area with plenty of books to choose from. In the queen bedroom is a desk if you need to get some work down.
The kitchen is a common area. There is a door that can be shut between kitchen and rented areas for plenty of privacy. The kitchen has all the essentials needed and I have plenty of coffee or tea on hand. If you rather be on your own, I give plenty of space and often take my morning coffee up stairs to my home on other side of house separate from rental. It is a very workable kitchen. There is a nice deck outside the back kitchen door with a picnic table and two person patio chair that looks out over the field next door.

We're in the country with a quiet neighborhood and plenty of space between homes, you'll probably not even notice anyone that lives near by. My home boarders pastures on 2 sides, where you can see the cows roaming by once in a while

Sandra has a lovely place and we enjoyed our stay tremendously. Clean, comfortable, roomy and in a peaceful Connecticut setting. Great Host. We have family in the area and will be back.

Jim2017-05-04T00:00:00Z

Friendly, clean, easy parking, private, cozy. Even with the shared kitchen no one really cooks during the week so plenty of kitchen time if you want it. Coffee time in the morning allowed for some conversations. Everyone always busy yet it's nice to come home to a clean quiet home! My stay fit my needs perfectly, quiet, comfortable and warm setting with nice furniture. Sandra is friendly and accommodating. Nature setting and close to Danbury Mall and Ridgefield. Very clean has cable internet. I was fortunate to meet Sandra and have the pleasure of staying as long as I did. Will miss the down home feeling I got every time I enter.

Janette2017-03-17T00:00:00Z

As I look at the categories they want me to rate, I want to say it's more than 5 out of 5! What a loving, beautiful, joyful, spacious and comfortable home Sandra has made for her guests. The neighborhood is majestic and her yard, garden, trees and home are all mature and beautifully tended to. She had food waiting for us, spotless EVERYTHING, comfortable beds and a cozy sitting area. It's a special place. We look forward to going back - and we will!

Cozy Cottage on lakefront. Enjoy the view, sunsets. Autumn colors fill the front of the house. House is 100ft. to the lake. Enjoy the sunset on the dock. Peaceful and 20 min. car ride to Metro North trains to N.Y. City. 60 minute drive from NYC. Currently the lowest priced listing on Lake Waccabuc. Canoeing and Kayaking are available if you are able.

There are Hiking Trails a 1/2 mile from the house. Beautiful rural setting

George's cabin is a delight. It's cozy, intimate, and has great views of the lake. There's ample space in the kitchen to cook, and a cozy couch to watch tv, play games, or just hang out on. George also took time to carefully explain all about the house and the area.

Jeremy2016-01-02T00:00:00Z

We enjoyed the long weekend at George's place. The house is light and airy, and is located right on the lake, so the views are gorgeous. Having a fireplace was a great perk, especially over the cold winter weekend we visited. And loved cooking in the big kitchen! George met us at the house and was very friendly -- appreciated him checking in on us as the temperature dipped. Hope to return in the summer months!

Amy2016-02-15T00:00:00Z

George was a wonderful host! He was very hospitable and flexible with check in/check out times. The cottage was very nice and well maintained. The lake is beautiful and it feels like part of the backyard. Also, there was a nice little dock. And if you have a car, Ridgiefield is a nice little town 15 minutes away. Really great experience!

Chad2015-11-25T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic time on Lake Waccabuc. George was a very nice host. He greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the house and provided a lot of very helpful information. The home has a beautiful view of the lake and a very nice dock with Andorak chairs, which we spent a lot of time in, taking in the view. It was a wonderful weekend getaway, and as the description says, it is a close and easy trip from Metro North train station. We look forward to returning.

Mia2015-11-08T00:00:00Z

the house was lovely! just as advertised with a breathtaking view. the fireplace made it a very cozy getaway for the weekend. George met us there to talk through the particulars and then we had a great time! highly recommended.

jacob2016-01-18T00:00:00Z

The Place: Less than an hour from NYC, the cottage is spacious (for a cottage!), beautifully decorated, and has a stunning view of the lake. It also has a fully stocked kitchen, real fireplace, a beautiful outdoor deck, a BBQ a small dock on the lake, and kayaks/canoe for guest use. The Host: George was communicative, friendly, and gave us plenty of space :) He left us an easy-light log for us to use in the fireplace (which we did), made local recommendations (which we used), and was flexible with arrival/departure times. What we did (besides lazing in): Kayaked, Canoed, worked from the deck overlooking the lake, watched sunset over the lake/mountains from the dock, sang karaoke around the fireplace We had a wonderful time, and hope to go back again!

Miki2016-09-25T00:00:00Z

George's cottage was lovely and had everything we needed including awesome sunsets, boats and a great location. He was an excellent host and we had a great weekend thanks to his cosy place and wonderful weather.

Linda2016-09-20T00:00:00Z

George has a beautiful cottage! It has been recently renovated and has a nice modern feel but is still cozy. The house has lots of natural sunlight and great views of the lake. The fireplace was also fantastic! They were also very flexible with check in and check out times. We loved sitting out on the dock to watch the sunset. There is a nearby grocery store in Cross river called Dicicco's which is great for purchasing food to cook. George even let us use his canoe which was so much fun. We cannot wait to stay again!!!!

Ira is a great host , it's a beautiful spot what more is there to say???

I stayed at Iris lovely little cottage for a couple of days in June when I came down for my granddaughter's birthday party. The place is adorable. It is quiet and secluded and extremely comfortable. Waking up in the morning with a cup of coffee and sitting out on the patio in the woods was perfect. Iras cottage was the perfect respite and I know I will be back.

Everything about Frank and Brandy's place is just perfect! This is truly one of the nicest places I've stayed through Airbnb. Parking right outside the door, fluffy towels and thoughtful little extras really make this a home away from home. Comfy bed, great shower, very clean and everything completely updated. I will definitely be back!

Debra2017-02-16T00:00:00Z

Frank's Place was great. The room was spotless and it is very private. Making it the perfect place to stay. I will be back for sure.

C.J.2017-05-25T00:00:00Z

Description doesn't do it justice. Nice two floor loft style place with a very comfy bed and cute little backyard with two chairs, which was great for enjoying the sun and reading. Perfect spot for a little weekend getaway and the bottle of wine on the house was a great touch.

Alex2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

The space lives up to it's name, and pleasantly exceeded our expectations. Frank was a great host, and the space was well equipped with everything needed to have a lovely stay. Frank included a bottle of wine which was a very generous addition to the night, and everything about the apartment was immaculate. I would definitely recommend this space for couples looking for a romantic evening together, and I would definitely consider staying here again in the future.

A clean rustic cottage on a quiet country road in Redding. Just a few minutes’ drive to shopping, dining and the train to NYC. A great short term hotel-alternative or just an escape from it all! The cottage is about 550 sq ft with an open floor plan. Please note: Pets must be pre-approved prior to booking.

Property is located on a quiet cul-de-sac in beautiful Redding, CT. Only two miles to shopping and restaurants.

What a lovely little place in such a quiet setting. Perfect for a relaxing weekend get away or writing session. The natural soundings make this such a relaxing, peaceful place. The place has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the host is accommodating and respects your privacy.

Julia2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

Ive stayed with Leslie before and her place is a little bit of heaven. Thanks Leslie

It's a very peaceful place to stay. We have a very great night.

sihan2017-02-26T00:00:00Z

This cottage was an absolutely perfect peaceful retreat from NYC. We loved how quiet and serene it was at all times. There were flowers to greet us and farm-fresh food in the refrigerator - really thoughtful touches! The cottage has everything you need from extra towels to toiletries to coffee. The location is close to restaurants in Redding/Georgetown and we recommend going for a long hike at Devil's Den Preserve and then indulging in the delicious wings at Lumberyard Pub. For a more upscale, romantic dinner try Washington Prime. We look forward to staying here again and again!! I wish we could buy this little place and come every weekend. Thank you so much, Leslie!

LINDA2017-02-20T00:00:00Z

I have stayed at Leslie's adorable cottage several times now when I visit my mother at a local residential living facility. Usually, I visit alone and have been so delighted to have this sweet little cottage to come back to in the evening especially in the winter with the gas stove burning. This time my husband joined me. He was equally delighted by the charm, comfortable bed, with all necessary amenities. I will be back next visit. Thank you, Leslie.

Shawn2016-02-17T00:00:00Z

Could not have been better! A lovely host and a charming cottage. The house was nearby but my host respected my privacy. When we did have an opportunity to meet while walking our dogs she turned out to be a very charming woman and we seem to have a lot in common. I couldn't have asked for more consideration. She left home made goodies in the fridge for me as well as some homemade treats for my puppy. The cottage is on a beautiful spacious piece of property located in an adorable town in Connecticut. You can't go wrong by staying here

Enjoy a quiet retreat after a day of adventure in NYC or Upper Westchester.
We love our home and are happy to share it with you.

Our house sits next to a beautiful glacier lake ( Lake Waccabuc) one hour north of New York City. The sunset views are spectacular!

Our neighborhood is peaceful and surrounded by nature.

Great house. Really cozy for a winter weekend. And Terry was very nice and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend.

I had such a relaxing stay at Terry's lakeside home. Such an enchanting location over looking picturesque beauty. I extended my stay an extra day. It was a fabulous extended weekend. I would highly recommend, and would stay here again. Thanks again Terry!

Ness2016-10-17T00:00:00Z

Terry was a wonderful host! Her home is quite beautiful, fully equiped and located right on lake Waccabuc, just over an hour drive from NYC. Everything was very tidy and in excellent condition. The communication with Terry before, during and after our trip was super helpful. I can easily recommend this home to anyone who wants to have a relaxed and enjoyable stay just a short distance from the city.

Zoey2016-05-16T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely stay at Terry's house over the 4th of July weekend. It was just what we were looking for. We are avid road cyclists and wanted to stay in the area for the beautiful, albeit hilly, biking and I also wanted to be able to swim in the open water. So, when my husband "found" this place on AirBnB, I was slightly skeptical since I had never heard of Lake Waccabuc before. I was so pleasantly surprised! The house is wonderful and tastefully put together, clean and very well kept. The immediate area in front of the house isn't best to swim right into, but Terry had kayaks available for us, and we kayaked 2 minutes to a more accessible area and swam away! It was such a pleasure to wake up on the lake to the sound of frogs and the sight of swans and when we weren't actually on or in the lake, the outdoor patio was the perfect place to take it all in. Terry herself was a lovely host and we were very appreciative of our wonderful weekend!

Fredrik2016-07-05T00:00:00Z

Such a cute place & Terry was a dream to work with!

Jenna 2017-04-13T00:00:00Z

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Terry's home in South Salem. The house is beautiful and clean and views of the lake are fantastic. It was the perfect getaway and we spent most mornings discovering the lake by kayak. Thank you Terry!

gerri2016-08-26T00:00:00Z

This lake house is amazing. Quiet, beautiful and welcoming - it became a home for us within 24 hours. Whenever we went anywhere in town, I just couldn't wait to go back and hit the lake on one of the kayaks. Sitting on the dock and drinking coffee while the family of swans made their way across the lake each morning was one of the many highlights. This home is well maintained and the care they put into the decor really shows - minimal and modern, a fantastic quaint design that has just what you need with nothing excessive in the way. We rarely used the TV or downstairs office area because of how much we wanted to be outside on the deck or in the hot tub. Thank you Terry - I hope we'll be back soon! Christopher

Christopher2016-06-23T00:00:00Z

Great place, great hostess. Paul McCartney said he enjoyed visiting other people's homes to see how they did the house, etc. Be glad Sir Paul never saw this place! He would've bought it and you'd never have gotten the chance to experience it. And if you're into natural light (no, not the beer tho Terry has that aplenty) the house has a halo that won't quit. If you want to bliss out at one of the prettiest glacier lakes this is it.

A dream home with original wooden beams, stone walls and barn decor. A great escape from NYC yet you are only 1 hr 15 minutes away. The 10 acre property is surrounded by nature with a 1000 acre park with great hiking trails within walking distance. A backyard propane grill, vegetable garden, fresh water pool, stream and private pond with a canoe complete the experience. Best feature? A stone wall double shower that makes you feel as though you are showering in a cave. A one-of-a-kind house!

The stone foundation dates to the 1780s and the original wood from the exterior of the barn was used to renovate the interior.
There is no central A/C however there are 3 window units for the upstairs. The master bedroom is downstairs where it's cooler however there is no A/C for the master or downstairs areas ( because there are no windows, only large glass doors in master bedroom and kitchen/dining areas).
The property manager's apartment is attached to the main house but he has his own entrance.

Bucolic horse country with great hiking nearby. All of your shopping needs are covered in Ridgefield, CT which is a 12 minute drive. Some excellent restaurants are just down the road: Farmer and the Fish, 121, Vox (2 minutes away) and The Inn at Pound Ridge.

North Salem is one of favorite places in the country. We've always wanted to live here. This was an incredible place to stay over the holidays. At first glance the building looks like an unassuming barn (it is in fact a barn), but once you're inside, it's a beautiful, incredible space. Lots of sunlight. Decorated well. Relaxing. We didnt want to leave.

Marie2016-12-28T00:00:00Z

The area, house and property are bucolic. Absolutely beautiful and relaxing. The pool is stunning and the house is clean, comfortable and well designed. Lots of charm everywhere. Emily was very responsive and Ryan the property manger was very nice and helpful with any questions we had. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone seeking peace and quiet in a beautiful setting.

Erica2016-07-11T00:00:00Z

This rental property was great. We were three families (all architects) who really enjoyed the house and landscape. It's generally hard to please architects, but this house had character and is a really well done renovation of a 1780s barn. The pond, bridges, tree ladder, and small trails were much fun for our small children who were interested in "exploring". We were also in the kitchen much of the weekend preparing big meals and grilling out. At nights we enjoyed the living room (big sofas and fireplace) for catching up with our friends. For future guests into venturing out, the house is a 20 minute drive to Grace Farms (community center) by famous Japanese architect SANAA.

Submerged in the heart of the Westchester horse country, this South Salem gem is ideal for relaxing and enjoying nature. The mint colonial house is on a quiet and secluded road, right off Lake Waccabuc, a natural springs lake great for fishing, swimming and entertaining. It is also just a short walk to Mountain Lakes Park, a natural sanctuary boasting 5 lakes and over 20 miles of hiking trails to explore nature.
The perfect summer retreat just within a 1 hour drive/MTA from Manhattan.

The house is ideal for outdoor lovers. Spend your days relaxing on the porch or terrace. Enjoy cooking in the chefs kitchen or grilling outside. Go for a run on the trails and come back for a dive on the lake. Take the boat or paddle board to castle rock. Take a nap on the hammock or the sun beds.

Spend the summer in a green, sustainably renovated, historic landmark 3BD house; harvest fresh veggies and flowers from the stone mandala garden; frolic in a 4000-acre backyard reservation and still be only an hour train ride from Grand Central.

A landmark historic home built in 1760 and restored in 2013, the entire house has original wide-plank hardwood floors and exposed beams. The first floor is an open layout with a gourmet kitchen including subzero, miele and viking appliances, a large pantry, and plenty of seating around the dining table and raw wood bar. Sit on the leather loveseats and look out the picture windows, sip wine at the old-growth oak countertop bar, or lounge in the living room, with double sliding glass doors leading out to the wrap-around deck, local stone fireplace, and reclaimed barnwood wall.
Upstairs, the master bedroom looks out on the gardens, old-growth trees, and dappled forest. The master bath has a large slate shower and sink. A second bedroom looks out over a hemlock grove and sleeps two in a cast-iron frame double bed. The third bedroom has a bunk bed and sleeps two. The second full bath has a large clawfoot soaking tub, cypress wood paneling, and antique marble sink. A full size washer and dryer on the second floor make laundry convenient.
The house was recently filmed and featured in the HBO show GIRLS, season six, episode two.
The house was renovated with geo-thermal heating and cooling, powered entirely by wind power. All appliances are energy efficient.
Collect fresh eggs every day from the six chickens in their self-contained coop. Pick your own herbs, salad greens and other organic veggies from the gardens, or enjoy a bottle of wine sitting in one of the garden nooks. Enjoy a soak in the outdoor clawfoot tub, fully functional with hot and cold water, while watching the birds, bees and butterflies flutter in the surrounding trees and flowers.
Soak up the sun in the grassy stone-walled gardens, swing under the grape arbor, picnic at the 100 year old apple tree, roast marshmallows around the cast-iron fire cauldron, or dine at the 9ft long garden table. Enjoy the afternoon shade of the slate patio or the morning sun on the wrap-around deck.
Forty miles of trails await you in Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Westchester's largest tract of preserved land. To access trails, just follow the path along the stone walls at the back of the property. Half a mile walk in the woods leads to the Overlook where you can view clear across the county, over the reservoir, to the mountains on the other side of the Hudson River. Pick wild blueberries, forage for mushrooms, or harvest wild raspberries. A quarter mile down the road is a stream to cool your feet, and a half mile away are trails down to the reservoir waters.
A gorgeous ten-minute drive through the country and along the reservoir leads to the quaint towns of Bedford and Katonah, where Metro-North commuter trains run take you to Grand Central in 60 minutes or less.
Dine at numerous farm-to-table restaurants, including The Inn at Pound Ridge, Bedford Post Inn, and Truck. Locally, visit the Katonah Museum of Art, visit the farmers markets, and stroll the gardens at John Jay Homestead, Hammond Japanese Gardens, and Garden of Ideas in South Salem. Don't miss the stellar summer outdoor concerts and music festivals at Caramoor, just two miles down the road.

Pound Ridge and the surrounding towns of Bedford and Katonah, were recently written up as an alternative to the Hamptons for the summer, with its country roads, lots of greenery, high end restaurants and beautiful views: (website hidden)?_r=0

Keely was an incredible host. Super communicative before our visit and extremely responsive and attentive during our stay (not that we needed any assistance; but it was great to have her check in!). The home was immaculate and inviting; a truly welcome place for a family like ours (with two children under 10) to settle in and explore, play and rest. Keely generously gave us access to her chickens (amazing eggs for breakfast!) and garden (the crispest and freshest radishes...) - what an unexpected and delightful experience. Looking forward to coming again!

Abram2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

Keely's house is a true upstate gem. The house is extremely welcoming and the layout and attention to detail is obvious throughout the house. You can tell that a lot of love has been put into making the house welcoming and warm. We really enjoyed our time there. Keely was very easy to communicate with and made sure our time at the house was perfect. The yard is expansive and the hiking trail next to house is a huge bonus. And the outdoor seating is magic.

amanda2015-06-18T00:00:00Z

It is a wonderful environmentally-friendly house, and we had a great stay. Keely was so helpful - even helped us arrange a babysitter. Loved seeing the rabbit and chickens and hiking in Ward Pound Ridge Reservation. Keely had great restaurant and activity suggestions prepared for our arrival.

Kellie2015-06-21T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time with our kids at this beautiful home bordering the Ward Pound Ridge Reservation. We enjoyed hiking with our kids, as the trails start right from the garden. We dined al fresco and cooked s'mores on the fire pit in the garden. The kids loved the little bunny and playing on the tire swing and hammock. The house is tastefully renovated and has a lot of charm. It's also an energy efficient house with an edible garden, and gave us a chance to have a wonderful retreat with views into the forest surrounded by old trees. We also explored the area and really loved Pound Ridge. It is a special place in Westchester; a natural environment so close to NYC. The highlights of our trip with the children were: Caramoor Music Festival, visiting Muscoot Farm and seeing a historic farm and all the baby animals ( calves, chick, lambs, kids).. John Jay Homestead Farmer's Market, hikes on Pound Ridge Trails, the village of Katonah, Rockefeller Estate and eating out at small local restaurants. We highly recommend this home and the owners really made it a special place.

The host was able to accommodate me at the last minute, and very responsive to my queries. The house is adorable and quaint...has a rural feel but still not far from shops the highway. You could conceivably stay there and use the train as the station is just a 5 min walk. The bedroom itself is small and somewhat rustic, but as you have use of a lovely living area and kitchen it did not seem confining. Overall, highly recommended.

This is a lovely house located at west Danbury, CT, bordering New York. 3 mins drive to interstate I-84 but close to restaurants, super markets and western Connecticut state university. Two guest rooms are available on ground floor with private entrances. There is a kitchen and a bathroom shared by these two bedrooms. We provide all living essentials although some of those not shown in picture (e.g. bed sets, desks, TV. Fridge, etc). This listing is for guest room 2

Please be advised that this room may not be suitable for people who are very sensitive to noise. Since host walking upstairs can be heard downstairs in this room (normal level of footstep sound)

Hi There,
I live in Redding Connecticut. It is a stunningly beautiful spot. The town was founded in 1767. My house rests on 2.5 wooded acres. It feels like a b&b in many ways. Tranquil, close to hiking & the city. A wonderful place to unwind.
